Lithium 2-methylbutan-2-olate is primarily used as a strong, sterically hindered base in organic synthesis. It facilitates selective deprotonation of weakly acidic protons in ketones, esters, and other carbonyl compounds. Its applications extend to polymerization catalysts and as an intermediate in fine chemical production. Due to its reactivity, it is often handled under strict anhydrous and oxygen-free conditions.
